Week of September 6th This week we are learning that the word "Technology" means more than computers... in fact, one definition of Technology is: "The use of human knowledge to convert resources into goods or services that people want or need."
We made the definition a little more kid-friendly: "Technology means the things people invent that make our life easier AND help us do things we couldn't do, as easily, without them.
So Technology can be many things! We discussed our new definition, and then worked together to make a list of as many things as we could think of that could be TECHNOLOGY! From shovels to satellites - there were a lot of great ideas! Next week will continue to identify different types of technology with a collage making activity. We will be sure to upload some pictures so we can share what we created!
